Great experience! Both my...

Great experience! Both my husband and I were standing up and riding waves by the end of the lesson, our instructor was very knowledgeable and helped us to feel comfortable and confident on the boards! We also saw some sea turtles while paddling out which was cool. Fun and unique experience, would definitely do again!

Great time and worker

Super nice instructor and he was very informative. Loved the whole experience. Honestly wasn’t as hard as I thought, or maybe the instructor was just great:)

They prioritize safety

The weather was completely against us. They tried multiple times to accommodate us. They went well out of their way to try to get us out there learning how to surf. But the fact that they were so communicative and put safety as a priority speaks volumes. We might not have had a lesson with them, but we will happily promote their company.

Do it!

It was so fun. Mick, our instructor, was kind and encouraging. Our whole party was able to stand at least once with Mick’s guidance. 10/10 would recommend.

Great lessons

Great lessons - teenage sons loved it and would do again - they were really pleased that they stood up and surfed and appreciated the guidance they got

Honest Company

We couldn't go out due to the tide being too high to produce waves. I wanted to leave a review because the instructor was honest and upfront about the conditions. We got a refund because we couldn't go another time.

Great lesson!

We stayed at the Outrigger Reef Resort so the meeting point (at the resort beach) was easy. We had a private and semi private lesson with Josh & Lindsay. They were great, did all the paddling work, and made it super easy to catch a wave. Me and kids (9 & 12) learned some basics on shore and went straight out. The waves were tiny and perfect for learning. This also made it very easy for the kids to feel comfortable. The boards were huge (I think 12 ft long) so even though the waves were tiny, we were all up and surfing in no time. We had a great time and this ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. Thank you.
